Greek Yogurt Dill Sauce

I think I mentioned this dip a couple summers ago in one of my Instalife posts but after making it over the weekend I realized I never shared the recipe with you! This stuff is awesome – it goes so well with so many different things and it’s definitely a much healthier alternative to a lot of things if you’re looking to cut back this year. Thick + creamy greek yogurt gets dressed up with fresh garlic, lemon + dill… it’s super flavorful and filling without loading up on calories. I LOVE this with veggies but it’s also great on grilled chicken, with some fresh toasted pitas, mixed with some warm potatoes for a potato salad or thinned out and used as a salad dressing. Here are the nutrition facts for those of you tracking (makes four 1/4c servings):

Start off with 1 cup plain greek yogurt in a large bowl.

Finely mince 3 cloves of garlic + add it to the yogurt. Note that this will make you’e dip very garlicky (is that a word? lol) which I like but if you want something more mild use 1 or 2.

Squeeze in the juice from half of a lemon + the zest from 1/2 a lemon as well. This adds a bright note of flavor to the dip and accentuates the flavor of the dill + garlic.
